The connection is that, though the Freeform may be the default, you should only have to switch it once, as your choice should be preserved. There has been some disagreement on which view should be the default; time and further feedback from deployments will tell what the best choice is, I hope. > Another problem is that the Activity button (the 4th zoom level) can > select the Journal if that was the last active activity.

While we do technically treat the Journal as an activity, it should always be the bottom-most activity on the stack. That is, you should only ever be switched to it when there are no other open activities left, which is reasonable, since the Journal is a point to resume activities from. If you can confirm this behavior in a recent joyride, could you make a ticket and indicate what build number you tested on? 2008/7/8 Chris Barrett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Just a lowly G1G1 end user here, > > environments to what suits them, I know I certainly do.

Yes indeed. That's been our plan since day one, but sadly it's slipped onto the back burner several times. Though we won't have time to add it for the August release, I have high hopes that we'll see list views in all zoom levels by the next release after that.

My suggestion is that > probably the Neighborhood/Group view's XO icon should have the same menu. Yeah this is a known "bug". We aren't quite certain whether or not the list view needs an XO, as it wouldn't fit into the same table as the activities in Home view. An alternative solution would be to ensure the "XO menu" (with shutdown, reboot, settings, etc.) is attached to your own XO in the people edge of the Frame, which is always available. Along the same lines, we agree with you that the XO in the other zoom levels should have the same palette! That's just another low priority bug that's been lingering for a while now. I'm not even sure if there's a ticket for it, though. Thanks for all the feedback everyone! Tickets are welcome if you can't find some already covering your concerns. Assign them to the interface-design component and I'll be sure to tackle them. - Eben _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
